The anti-pornography squad is about to set off.
The Red King was furious and led his team to the brothel to do business.
Before going out, everyone got ready. Zheng Xiu walked to the inn yard, looked up, and saw a thin shadow with his hands on his knees, huddled on the roof, basking in the moonlight alone.
Remembering the strange behavior of the snake during dinner, Zheng Xiu thought for a while, used his hands and feet to secretly climb along the pillar to the roof, tiptoeing on the bricks and tiles, and approached the snake.
But before Zheng Xiu had time to get close to the snake, the snake with its back to Zheng Xiu didn't look back and said dullly: "Stop hiding, I've heard your voice a long time ago."
"Meow!"
Above Zheng Xiu, the orange cat sneered. The pony Red King became angry and slapped the cat's butt hard.
"Snapped!"
The orange cat was stunned.
Zheng Xiu sat next to the snake.
"Let's go, Sister Ye is calling you."
Zheng Xiu still pretended to be childish. Since Snake and Ye liked the image of "Little Pony Red King", Zheng Xiu simply used a child's mentality to get along with them.
"No, no, no, no!"
The snake shook its head vigorously.
"But your sister said..."
"It's so noisy! It's so noisy!" Snake shook his head impatiently and made a "hissing" sound from time to time: "You can just go and I'll stay here. Why don't you and your sister go?" ! Anyway, sister is beautiful and everyone likes her."
"Let me tell you a little bedtime story."
The young man was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled. Snake was impatient and was about to refuse when the young man started telling a story.
"Once upon a time, there was a couple who bought an old horse one day. The couple were very happy and rode the old horse on the street."
The snake suddenly became quiet, its pointed ears twitching slightly.
Maybe I can be a qualified "storyteller".
Zheng Xiu thought to himself and continued:
"Passers-by saw it and started criticizing the couple: Oh, these two old guys are not good people. Look, the old horse's back is almost bent."
Zheng Xiu vividly imitated the disgusting comments of the "melon-eating passerby".
"The couple heard this and felt ashamed. The woman got off her horse and left the old man riding alone. At this time, passers-by pointed out: This old man is really a beast. He rides alone and leaves the woman to lead the horse. He deserves to die."
The snake snorted.
"The couple had no choice but to change places, leaving the woman on the horse and the old man holding the horse. At this time, passers-by pointed at the woman and ridiculed: This shrew does not follow the rules of women and dares to let her husband lead the horse!"
The short bedtime story struck a chord with the snake. Zheng Xiu’s deliberate pause made the snake couldn’t help but interrupt: “In the worst case, I won’t even ride anymore!”
"Yes," Zheng Xiu suppressed laughter and told the ending of the story: "So they both got off the horse and led the horse away. Finally, the passers-by burst into laughter when they saw this: This couple is really stupid. They bought I don’t even know how to ride a horse.”
Snake frowned, and his pupils gradually changed from round to vertical. She tilted her head and seemed to be sticking out her tongue under the veil: "Hey, what do you mean by this story?"
"Ahem, I don't mean anything else. This story tells us that the world often only sees your bad side and ignores your good side. Just like my... uncle Chi King, the world often only sees your bad side. His wealth and power dominate the world, but his hard work, kindness, integrity and friendliness cannot be seen."
Snake chuckled and was amused: "Is the Red King your father? Are you looking towards him like this?"
"In short," Zheng Xiu concluded: "It doesn't matter if a person is ugly, being kind-hearted is more important than anything else."
The snake's eyes widened.
What I fear most is that the air suddenly becomes quiet.
The orange cat covered its eyes speechlessly and jumped off the boy's head.
After the snake was silent for a moment, it suddenly shouted, turned over and pressed the young man under it. It became angry and said viciously: "I will bite you to death!" After that, the snake took a bite, lifted up a corner of its veil, and its fine scales shone in the moonlight. A silvery shimmer reflected below. The dense snake scales made Zheng Xiu suddenly startled. It was during this moment that the snake actually opened its mouth and bit Zheng Xiu on the face.
Zheng Xiu only felt a slight sting on his face. When the snake's mouth left Zheng Xiu's face, two small teeth marks were left on Zheng Xiu's face, and his entire face was numb.
"you……"
[You tried your best to resist the snake venom, and your physique gained a little experience. 】
[Through unremitting efforts, you have struggled in life and death situations many times, which has improved your physical fitness. 】
[Physique plus one. 】
[Physique increased to thirty-nine. 】
The experience value soared without any precaution or worry. It just appeared out of thin air. Zheng Xiu was dumbfounded. He couldn't help but said, "Would you like to take a few more bites?"
Zheng Xiu's fluent words stunned the snake. She pointed at Zheng Xiu's mouth dumbfounded: "You are not poisoned?"
Although the poison she used was not fatal, it could paralyze the mouth and tongue, making it impossible to speak.
After Zheng Xiu was bitten by her, he still spoke clearly, and it didn't look like he was poisoned at all. This made the snake wonder if the bite he had just missed was not in the right place. Or is this guy too thick-skinned and she couldn't get into his flesh?
Miscalculated.
Snake thought sadly.
At this time, Ye Na's gentle voice came from below: "Stop making trouble, snake."
Ye, Xi'er, Situ Yong, Jun Buxiao, and Yin Qingqing were all dressed up and gathered in the courtyard. Among them, under Zheng Xiu's instruction, Jun Buxiao and Situ Yong took off their work clothes and put on casual clothes. At least it looks like he went to a brothel to pick flowers.
Zheng Xiu called it "fishing and cracking down on pornography."
Among them, Situ Yong was the most similar. He wore a colorful embroidered robe, his white hair was tied back with a golden belt, and he wore jade around his waist. If you don't know better, you can't tell that this is a world-renowned old miracle doctor, just like a rich man who hangs out in Wenwen Township.
As for Jun Buxiao, he rarely takes off his mask, revealing a pale face, unsmiling and empty eyes.
Wearing a mask, Jun Buxiao is full of emotions, and his smile is captivating. But Jun Buxiao looked like a retard after taking off his mask.
"Little Master,"
Ye glanced at the snake who was angry for some reason, and said to Zheng Xiu: "Why don't you let the snake stay here? The snake's hearing and smell are extremely keen. If the evil thing in the pregnant boy's belly is really the plot of Xiang Gu, I'm afraid I When the case comes to investigate, someone will do harm to the pregnant teenager.”
Zheng Xiu agreed with this. Shoujia must leave someone to guard the family. Zheng Xiu doesn't want to short the base camp.
Since Ye Du said so, Zheng Xiu let the snake stay.
"Old miracle doctor, where is your guy?"
Zheng Xiu jumped down from the roof, looked at the old miracle doctor's flat back, and asked curiously.
The old miracle doctor patted his waist with a proud look on his face: "Of course I have hidden my treasure."
When the clothes are tight, the shape of the scabbard is faintly visible.
When Zheng Xiu heard this, he cursed in his heart, why did he go there earlier? He had to be so high-profile before, with six swords thrust out like Spider-Man.
A group of people are walking on the street.
At the beginning of the night, many men were walking in a hurry on the street, walking in the same direction as Zheng Xiu and others.
They occasionally saw an infuriating scene. In front of a house, a greasy-dressed middle-aged man wanted to go out. The simple woman cried and stopped her, but was slapped to the ground by the angry man.
Xi'er couldn't see it and was about to teach him a lesson. Jun Buxiao said with a faceless smile, "Hey, let me do it."
I saw Jun Buxiao pretending to be passing by, waving the scissors behind the man, and the man's shadow was cut off by Jun Buxiao strangely, struggling like a bug in Jun Buxiao's hand.
Jun Buxiao spread the shadow's legs, squinted his eyes and slashed at the slight bulge of the shadow with his knife.
"Crack!"
"Oh my, it's so hard to find!"
Jun Buxiao's strange voice and the "click" sound sounded at the same time.
The crisp sound of the scissors opening and closing made Situ Yong and Zheng Xiu subconsciously tighten their legs. Jun Buxiao threw the shadow of the "eunuch" behind the man, and the shadow "lyed" at the man's feet again.
After taking a few steps, a man's frightened voice came from behind: "Where is my majesty and beauty!!!"
Looking back, what made several people laugh was that the man was opening his trousers, looking at the inside of his trousers with tears in his eyes, crying and kneeling on the ground with a plop, looking lifeless.
Situ Yong's mouth twitched: "Your 'shadow play' really makes people avoid you."
"Hehe, it's just a cover-up."
Jun Buxiao said modestly. He subconsciously took out the mask and wanted to put it on his face, but when he thought about the "fishing and crackdown on pornography" commanded by the Red King, he hid the mask back in his arms without any interest.
They were talking and laughing all the way, but they didn't act like they were just picking flowers. Halfway through, Zheng Xiu waved to Ye Shen mysteriously. Ye's face turned slightly red, he fell a few steps behind and asked the young man what he wanted to do.
Zheng Xiu asked about the scales on the snake's face.
Ye Wenyan couldn't help but be startled: "Did you see it?"
"careless."
Zheng Xiu touched the place where the snake bit him, thinking that such a good fat sheep should be watched closely. He took a poisonous bath for a month before his [Physique] improved a little. Every time he took a bath, he only gained "a little" experience. Instead, he got a "little" experience after being bitten by a snake. Maybe the key to [Evil Boy]'s physique reaching an "exceptional" level lies in the snake.
The wool must be gathered to death.
After the avatar's attributes reach a bottleneck, it can "break the rules" when certain unknown conditions are met. [Zheng Baimei]'s [Learning] attribute "breaks the rules" and becomes "Comprehension" in one go under the impetus of "Neither Business nor Evil". I don't know what will happen to [Physique] once it breaks the rules.
Ye was silent for a moment and smiled with relief: "It doesn't hurt to tell you. After all, it seems rare for a snake to get along so well with its peers."
peer.
Um.
Zheng Xiu nodded vigorously.
Ye added: "Perhaps you don't know that Snake and I are not actually sisters."
Zheng Xiu moved his eyes down from Ye's face, looked at it, and said clearly: "Sure enough, I have seen it a long time ago."
Ye smiled slightly: "Young master, you have good eyesight."
She told a story.
Once upon a time, horse thieves were rampant in the desert heading west. One day, horse thieves massacred a village, but for some reason a giant snake was disturbed. The giant snake swallowed all the horse thieves into its belly. Amidst the devastation, the giant snake heard the cry of the baby.
The giant snake pushed away the collapsed house, and under the rubble there was a swaddling body. Lying in the swaddling body was a white and plump baby girl. The giant snake didn't know why, but it took the baby girl into its mouth and raised it as its own.
Gradually, scales grew on the baby girl's body, and her living habits became more and more like a snake.
It can shed its skin, hibernate, has keen hearing and smell, and extremely weak eyesight.
When the baby girl was seven years old, a giant snake lurked underground and abandoned the grown-up baby girl on an oasis outside the incomplete building "Mirage".
The baby girl was discovered by a blind man in the incomplete building and brought back to the building. She was named "Snake" because of her unique appearance.
Snake has a unique appearance, and the blind people in the building always laugh at her for being ugly. Later, Ye was so angry that he beat up all the blind people in the building and called Snake "sisters". The appearance of the blind man in the building was like a laughing snake. Ye Bian put on a veil together with the snake and never showed his true face again.
"The giant snake is like a biological mother to the snake. The snake still doesn't understand why the giant snake abandoned her and left alone many years ago."
"I had good intentions. I thought you had good hearts and would not judge people by their appearance, so I took off my veil and encouraged Snake to treat you sincerely. After all, I also hope that Snake can truly let go of his guard and talk to you."
Ye said, sighing softly: "Perhaps Snake thought Ye had betrayed her."
The "giant snake" in Ye's story became more and more familiar to Zheng Xiu. He couldn't help but ask: "The giant snake you mentioned...could it be white?"
Ye heard the words and looked at the young man suspiciously: "How do you know?"
"Ahem, I guessed it. White Snake, it's easy to think of." Zheng Xiu was prevaricating, feeling a little guilty for no reason. He and the monk almost disemboweled the white snake on the snowy mountain.
"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Zheng Xiu lowered his head and muttered: "So, the way the snake took it is not a 'divine witchcraft' at all?"
When Ye heard the words, he hesitated, smiled bitterly, and lowered his voice: "You are really...that's all. In fact, even the poster doesn't know what kind of path the snake takes. The poster speculates that there are things in the world that are beyond the reach of humans. Once you enter the door, your body will involuntarily show 'inhuman' changes. For example, there is a 'crow keeper' in our building, and his appearance looks like a... bird."
Her first sentence seemed to say that you are really a clever little kid. Since Zheng Xiu had guessed most of it, Ye did not continue to hide it and openly revealed the secret that had been hidden for many years.
Inhuman way!
Zheng Xiu thought of the "Path Map" that he and Feng Bei had deduced together, and the large blank space between the prisoners and the upper, middle and lower ranks. Indeed, just as Ye said, Zheng Xiu also believed that in the blank space between [prisoners] and [people], there must be a path that non-human beings can take.
Such as birds, cats, snakes and so on.
Zheng Xiu still doesn't know why "foreign people" and "menjing" exist, why he can master all kinds of miraculous arts when he sees the doorway, and why people who are born as strangers are born with the ability to master strange arts. Now this is a question without an answer. Now, the only person in the world who knows the answer to this question may be "Zhu". Zheng Xiu is very curious about what Zhu saw at the end of his journey a thousand years ago, so that he Such a fear of "constant darkness".
Thinking of Zhu, Zheng Xiu's face turned cold. There was one thing Zheng Xiu didn't say. In this case, Wutong Shen, Brothel, Lanhua, Xianggu, the interlocking clues, and this familiar technique made Zheng Xiu involuntarily associated with the layout technique of "Zhu".
In "Cannibal Painting", Zheng Xiu personally experienced what happened during the two hundred years and two "hundred years" that were unknown to the world. If there is anyone in the world who understands Zhu's methods, Zheng Xiu dare not say that he knows the best, but he must be one of the people who understands Zhu the best.
Thinking that there might be a shadow of "Zhu" behind this case, Zheng Xiu felt anxious and excited at the same time. It was late at night, and the anti-pornography brigade passed through the town and arrived in front of Yanchun Tower.
Two girls, about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing heavy makeup and pretending to be alluring, stood in front of the building to solicit customers.
The anti-pornography team, a combination of men, women, old and young cats, is eye-catching, and the two girls soliciting customers can't help but look at them.
Zheng Xiu touched his forehead and passed a [Detection].
A "proficient" level [investigation] rarely fails. In an instant, all clues are invisible in Zheng Xiu's eyes.
Pink mist loomed around the Yanchun Tower, floating inward at the entrance. Zheng Xiu stretched out his hand to explore the "pink mist" invisible to the naked eye, and concluded that it had "the scent of orchids".
Zheng Xiu nodded: "That's her."
